A comparison of 2 things using simile words “like” or “as”

I like to play. I talk aloud as i read a book.

Explanation;

The main difference between a simile and metaphor is that a simile uses the words "like" or "as" to draw a comparison and a metaphor simply states the comparison without using "like" or "as".

Hope that helps.

my dad purchased natural colorings in a specialty store

usually, a falcon can kill an owl, and horses don't normally eat each other.
